| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The Megaton armory is the town's most heavily secured location. The armory is Megaton's primary weapons and ammunition depot. It also houses the computer terminal used to control both Deputy Weld, and Deputy Steel.
Layout[]
It has a very hard lock on the door. As you enter, Deputy Steel is in front, ready to protect the arsenal from thieves, including you. On the right is a counter with two hunting rifles, a combat shotgun, 1-2 10mm pistol and three Chinese assault rifles on it. Next to it is a metal shelf with a metal box on it. In the back there is a cabinet and beside that is a hard locked terminal that allows you to deactivate Deputy Steel and Weld, and along the left wall is a ruined couch.
Notable loot[]
- Hunting rifle x 3
- Combat shotgun x 1
- Chinese assault rifle x 3
- N99 10mm pistol x 2
- Sawed-off shotgun x 1
- An average safe (Lockpick skill of 50 or above) containing random loot. Possible notable loot is AEP7 laser pistol and a scoped .44 magnum.

In the newer versions of the game (i.e. Game of the Year Edition) this option is not possible, Deputy Steel keeps his place in the armory and no one moves into Deputy Weld's position outside Megaton. If you initiate combat with Deputy Weld (the

- The equipment inside the armory is in very poor condition and may be of little use to a player able to pick a Very Hard lock.
